Match Details:
The 25th match of the Bengal T20 Tournament 2020 will be played between Kalighat Club and Mohun Bagan A.C. at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata.
The match is scheduled to start at 07:00 PM IST and can be streamed live on FanCode.
Preview:
Three teams are battling it out for the fourth position at the points table. East Bengal Club, Mohun Bagan A.C. and the Calcutta Customs Club have got the same points and only Net Run Rate separates them. Though they are currently outside the top 4, Mohun Bagan know it well that a win will change the picture completely.
Their next opposition is Kalighat Club, a team that has had a roller-coaster ride in this competition. They have secured 4 wins in 8 games and are placed at third. However, given how closely-packed the teams are, they are far from safety and will be desperate to increase the gap with the chasing lot.
